Dear DataMed user: DataMed prototype(v3.0) is being developed for the NIH BD2K Data Discovery Index (DDI) by the bioCADDIE project team. DataMed, once completed, will be of use to the scientific community to allow users to search for and find data across different repositories in one space.
We are soliciting your feedback to help us shape DataMeds' future development. Please take a moment to answer this brief Survey Form and give us your thoughts. We believe your voice will be a critical addition to the development of the bioCADDIE prototype.
Thank you, from the bioCADDIE team.

The Australian Survey of Social Attitudes (AuSSA) is Australia’s main source of data for the scientific study of the social attitudes, beliefs and opinions of Australians, how they change over time, and how they compare with other societies. The survey is used to help researchers better understand how Australians think and feel about their lives. It produces important information about the changing views and attitudes of Australians as we move through the 21st century. Similar surveys are run in other countries, so data from the AuSSA also allows us to compare Australia with countries all over the world. The aims of the survey are to discover: the range of Australians’ views on topics that are important to all of us; how these views differ for people in different circumstances; how they have changed over the past quarter century; and how they compare with people in other countries. AuSSA is also the Australian component of the International Social Survey Project (ISSP). The ISSP is a cross-national collaboration on surveys covering important topics. Each year, survey researchers in some 40 countries each do a national survey using the same questions. The ISSP focuses on a special topic each year, repeating that topic from time to time. The topic for 2014 is "Citizenship". This is the second time this has been the topic of the survey, having previously been the theme for surveys in 2004. The following variables are embargoed until July 1, 2017: B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, C1A, C1B, C1C, C2A, C2B, C2C, C2D, C2E, C2F, C2G, C2H, C2I.
